What was that about?

I was just wondering why the site was offline for a couple of days? I thought that it was just my computer, but a few other people had the same problem. What happened?

It's a problem that seems to occur regularly between terms at CMU. I assume it's because most of the RA's (who do most of the "grunt work" - including web site maintanence - at a typical university) are on vacation.

Happy Holidays to those of you still stuck with the problems.

Not sure what happened -- am visiting family now so I missed out on the hiccup. I'll ask around.
